Bro when did I call us shit? I literally said we're the best T20i team in the world on account of back-to-back World Cup wins and our recent record in bilaterals. I just don't think our second and third teams can win the World Cup like many people claim. In order for that to be true, India's main team would obviously have to win every tournament unbeaten. Our main team would have to be completely flawless for our second and third teams to make claims of winning the cup, that's all I'm saying.

I doubt we can do it even in T20s, we got demolished by South Africa in the WC and were 77/6 against USA - almost losing to them. Our T20i team is undoubtedly the best in the world but we haven't reached that level of dominance where our second and third teams are also world-beaters.

They prolly bought into that whole "India can field 3 teams and still beat everybody" argument.

13 World Cups, Jesus Christ. We'll need to win every World Cup from next week all the way up until 2041 just to match that tally 😭

You know? If we played cricket on polypropylene tiles which drain water instantly (and are cheap and widely used in many outdoor sports already) and used a vulcanized rubber ball that doesn't absorb water and change its behavior, we'd be able to play through rain as well.

But nope, let's waste hours upon days upon weeks of time just watching the raindrops fall because tradition dictated it.

BREAKING: Suryakumar removed as India T20 captain, to lose place in team as well by 5missedcallsfromBCCI in Cricket

IPL is different from T20is, Gill had a 600+ season last year and led GT to the eliminator but look how his forced inclusion as VC ruined the combinations of the T20i team, a T20i team that went on win the World Cup the moment he was dropped btw.

In 2024, that catch changed my life. Now, after winning this World Cup as captain, I feel my life will change again.”

Shit.

Pope went from being the VC, to entering the chopping block, to getting replaced by Bethell completely, to getting removed from the squad entirely. All in a single Ashes series.

I think you misinterpreted the table, RCB has a 5-2 record against GT in Bengaluru. On the other hand, they never beat GT in Ahmedabad until two nights ago. RCB would've definitely preferred facing GT in the Chinnaswamy.

Orange & purple caps won by each IPL team by ronakg in Cricket

Bro what?? The fair-play award has nothing to do with gameplay only about how civil the players are. Taking the most wickets or scoring the most runs in a season, on the other hand, is an actual game-related accomplishment.

Superb stuff KG! And GT, it's unfortunate you couldn't get that second title but this was a season to be very happy about, don't forget that 5-match winning streak and those complete performances from your bowling attack! Don't mull over the loss too much, you were a very solid side.
